DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

In order to clarify the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in the following with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be clear that the described embodiments are merely part of the embodiments of the present disclosure rather than all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without paying creative labor shall fall into the protection scope of the present disclosure.
The terms used in the embodiments of the present disclosure are merely for the purpose of describing particular embodiments but not intended to limit the present disclosure. Unless otherwise noted in the context, the singular form expressions “a”, “an”, “the” and “said” used in the embodiments and appended claims of the present disclosure are also intended to represent plural form expressions thereof.
It should be understood that, the term “and/or” is used in the present disclosure merely to describe relations between associated objects, and thus includes three types of relations. That is, A and/or B can represent: (a) A exists alone; (b) A and B exist at the same time; or (c) B exists alone. In addition, the character “/” generally indicates “or”.
It should be understood that although terms “first”, “second”, “third” etc. are used to describe clock signal lines, power signal lines, gate driving transistors, gate driving capacitors, virtual driving transistors, virtual driving capacitors, clock signal input terminals, and power signal input terminals, they shall not be interpreted as limiting the specific clock signal lines, power signal lines, gate driving transistors, gate driving capacitors, virtual driving transistors, virtual driving capacitors, clock signal input terminals, and power signal input terminals. These terms are merely used to distinguish the clock signal lines, power signal lines, gate driving transistors, gate driving capacitors, virtual driving transistors, virtual driving capacitors, clock signal input terminals and power signal input terminals from one another. For example, without departing from the scope of the embodiments of the present disclosure, a first clock signal line, a first power signal line, a first gate driving transistor, a first gate driving capacitor, a first virtual driving transistor, a first virtual driving capacitor, a first clock signal input terminal and a first power signal input terminal may also be referred to as a second clock signal line, a second power signal line, a second gate driving transistor, a second gate driving capacitor, a second virtual driving transistor, a second virtual driving capacitor, a second clock signal input terminal and second power signal input terminal, respectively. Similarly, a second clock signal line, a second power signal line, a second gate driving transistor, a second gate driving capacitor, a second virtual driving transistor, a second virtual driving capacitor, a second clock signal input terminal, and a second power signal input terminal may also be referred to as a first clock signal line, a first power signal line, a first gate driving transistor, a first gate driving capacitor, a first virtual driving transistor, a first virtual driving capacitor, a first clock signal input terminal, and a first power signal input terminal, respectively.
FIG. 1A and FIG. 1B are designs of gate driving units commonly used in a rounded angle region. As shown in FIG. 1A, a plurality of gate driving units SL is arranged in a non-rounded angle region, and a first gap JL is formed between two adjacent gate driving units SL in the non-rounded angle region. A plurality of gate driving units SR is arranged in a rounded angle region, and a second gap JR is formed between two adjacent gate driving units SR in the rounded angle region. As can be seen from FIG. 1A, since the number of gate driving units required for per unit length in the rounded angle region is smaller than the number of gate driving units required for per unit length in the non-rounded angle region, the second gap JR is bigger than the first gap JL. That is, the number of gate driving units per unit area in the rounded angle region is smaller than the number of gate driving units per unit area in the non-rounded angle region, i.e., there are more blank regions in the rounded angle region. In this case, the rounded angle region and the non-rounded angle region may be unevenly etched, thereby affecting the encapsulation effect. In order to fill the blank region, it is conventional to make certain changes to the gate driving unit, for example changing it into a trapezoidal shape, an irregular quadrilateral or the like, which is different from the gate driving unit in the non-rounded angle region. As shown in FIG. 1B, a plurality of gate driving units SL is arranged in the non-rounded angle region, and each of the plurality of gate driving units SL in the non-rounded angle region is formed as a rectangular shape. A plurality of gate driving units SR is arranged in the rounded angle region, and each of the plurality of gate driving units SR in the rounded angle region is formed as a non-rectangular shape and has a larger area than the gate driving unit SL in the non-rounded angle region. With such a design, although the blank regions may keep consistent, the gate driving units have a decreased uniformity, which affects the internal etching of the gate driving units as well as the subsequent encapsulation and thus has an influence on the gate driving unit device and even on the display effect.
An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a display panel 100. As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, the display panel 100 has a display region 101 and a peripheral region 102. The display panel 100 includes a plurality of gate lines Gate, a plurality of data lines Data, a plurality of pixel units P, a first clock signal line CL1, a second clock signal line CL2, a first power signal line V1, and a second power signal line V2. Herein, the plurality of data lines Data is insulated from and intersects with the plurality of gate lines Gate.
With further reference to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, the display panel 100 further includes a plurality of gate driving units S and a plurality of virtual driving units D. Each gate driving unit S has a first clock signal input terminal CKQ1, a second clock signal input terminal CKQ2, and an output terminal Qout. The output terminal Qout of the gate driving unit S is electrically connected to the gate line Gate, the first clock signal input terminal CKQ1 of the gate driving unit S is electrically connected to the first clock signal line CL1, and the second clock signal input terminal CKQ2 of the gate driving unit S is electrically connected to the second clock signal line CL2. It should be noted that when the first clock signal input terminal CKQ1 of one stage of gate driving unit S is electrically connected to the first clock signal line CL1 and the second clock signal input terminal CKQ2 of this stage of gate driving unit S is electrically connected to the second clock signal line CL2, the first clock signal input terminal CKQ1 of a next stage of gate driving unit S is electrically connected to the second clock signal line CL2 and the second clock signal input terminal CKQ2 of the next stage of gate driving unit S is electrically connected to the first clock signal line CL1. That is, the respective first clock signal input terminals CKQ1 of the plurality of gate driving units are alternately electrically connected to the first clock signal line CL1 and the second clock signal line CL2, and the respective second clock signal input terminals CKQ2 of the plurality of gate driving units are alternately electrically connected to the first clock signal line CL1 and the second clock signal line CL2.
With further reference to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, each virtual driving unit D has a first clock signal input terminal CKD1, a second clock signal input terminal CKD2, and an output terminal Dout. The output terminal Dout of the virtual driving unit D is insulated from the gate line Gate, and the first clock signal input terminal CKD1 and the second clock signal input terminal CKD2 of the virtual driving unit D are both insulated from the first clock signal line CL1 and the second clock signal line CL2. That is, although the virtual driving unit D has a same or similar design as the gate driving unit S, the virtual driving unit D is not connected to the gate line Gate, the first clock signal line CL1 or the second clock signal line CL2. That is, unlike the gate driving unit S, the virtual driving unit D does not have the function of driving the gate line Gate and performing signal shift. The peripheral region 102 includes at least one rounded angle region, and at least one virtual driving unit D is arranged in the rounded angle region and located between two gate driving units S.
In an embodiment, the first power signal line V1 can input a high-level signal, and the second power signal line V2 can input a low-level signal. The virtual driving unit D can have exactly the same design as the gate driving unit S, or a ratio of an area of the virtual driving unit D to an area of the gate driving unit S can be within a range of 0.99:1 to 1:0.99.
For the display panel 100 provided by this embodiment of the present disclosure, at least one virtual driving unit D, which is the same as or similar to the gate driving unit S, is arranged between the gate driving units S in the rounded angle region, such that a position without the gate driving unit S in the rounded angle region is filled, and thus the problem of uneven etching in the rounded angle region can be solved and the reliability and yield of the display panel 100 can be improved.
In an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, an input terminal Qin of the gate driving unit S is electrically connected to the output terminal Qout of a previous stage of gate driving unit S, and a virtual signal input terminal Din of the virtual driving unit D is electrically connected to the first power signal line V1. The virtual signal input terminal Din of the virtual driving unit D is electrically connected to the first power signal line V1, so as to increase the electrostatic discharge path. Thus, the virtual driving unit D can be used as an electrostatic discharge unit, further increasing the reliability of the display panel 100.
It should be noted that, in other embodiments of the present disclosure, for example, the input terminal Qin of the gate driving unit S is electrically connected to the output terminal Qout of a previous stage of gate driving unit S, and the virtual signal input terminal Din of the virtual driving unit D is floating. That is, the virtual signal input terminal Din of the virtual driving unit D is not electrically connected to any signal line and does not access any signal. Floating the virtual signal input terminal Din of the virtual driving unit D can simplify the trace design and avoid an impact of a cross-bridge design on other signal lines.
An embodiment of the present disclosure further provides a display panel. With reference to FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, the gate driving unit S includes a plurality of gate driving transistors Q1 to Q8, and the virtual driving unit D includes a plurality of virtual driving transistors D1 to D8. The number (eight) of gate driving transistors in the gate driving unit S is equal to the number (eight) of virtual driving transistors in the virtual driving unit D. It should be noted that FIG. 5 and FIG. 6 merely illustrate one circuit design of a gate driving unit and a virtual driving unit. In other embodiments of the present disclosure, it is also possible that the gate driving unit includes seven, nine, ten, or other number of gate driving transistors, as long as the number of virtual driving transistors in the virtual driving unit is equal to the number of gate driving transistors in the gate driving unit.
According to the display panel provided by this embodiment of the present disclosure, since the number of virtual driving transistors of the virtual driving unit D is equal to the number of gate driving transistors of the gate driving unit S, the virtual driving unit D can be designed to be consistent with the gate driving unit S to a maximum extent, i.e., the circuit designs of the two can be basically the same. This can achieve design uniformity for per unit area in the rounded angle region and per unit area in the non-rounded angle region, and thus the problem of uneven etching can be solved and the encapsulation reliability of the yield of the display panel can be improved.
An embodiment of the present disclosure further provides a display panel, as shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 7, or FIG. 5 and FIG. 8. As shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 7, the gate driving unit S includes a plurality of gate driving transistors Q1 to Q8, and the virtual driving unit D includes a plurality of virtual driving transistors D1 to D7. The number (eight) of gate driving transistors in one gate driving unit S is larger than the number (seven) of virtual driving transistors in one virtual driving unit D. As shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 8, the gate driving unit S includes a plurality of gate driving transistors Q1 to Q8, and the virtual driving unit D includes a plurality of virtual driving transistors D1 to D6. The number (eight) of gate driving transistors in one gate driving unit S is larger than the number (six) of virtual driving transistors in one virtual driving unit D. It should be noted that FIG. 5 merely illustrates one circuit design of the gate driving unit. In other embodiments of the present disclosure, it is also possible that the gate driving unit includes seven, nine, ten, or other number of gate driving transistors, as long as the number of virtual driving transistors in the virtual driving unit is smaller than the number of gate driving transistors in the gate driving unit.
According to the display panel provided by this embodiment of the present disclosure, since the number of virtual driving transistors in the virtual driving unit D is slightly smaller than the number of gate driving transistors in the gate driving unit S, the transistor close to the signal line can be removed while maintaining the similarity between the virtual driving unit D and the gate driving unit S, i.e., maintaining the similarity between circuit designs. In this way, the circuit load and interference can be reduced. The display panel provided by this embodiment of the present disclosure can not only maintain the similarity of design per unit area between the rounded angle region and the non-rounded angle region, solve the problem of uneven etching and improve the encapsulation reliability of the display panel, but also reduce the energy consumption and interference of the display panel, improve the yield of the display panel and improve the user experience.

The third gate driving transistor Q3 closest to the second power signal line V2 existing in the gate driving unit S is removed from the virtual driving unit D, so that the coupling effect with the second power signal line V2 can be reduced, thereby further improving the stability of the panel and reducing the power consumption of the panel. In addition, if the first clock signal input terminal CKD1, the second clock signal input terminal CKD2, and the virtual signal input terminal Din of the virtual driving unit D are connected to a fixed signal (i.e., being electrically connected to the first power signal line or the second power signal line), the electrostatic discharge path of the display panel 100 is increased, thereby further improving the reliability of the display panel 100.

In addition, if the first clock signal input terminal CKD1, the second clock signal input terminal CKD2, and the virtual signal input terminal Din of the virtual driving unit D are connected to a fixed signal (i.e., being electrically connected to the first power signal line or the second power signal line), the electrostatic discharge path of the display panel 100 is increased, thereby further improving the reliability of the display panel 100.
